    It’s 1999 and you go to a record store to listen to the entire album BEFORE you buy it. Never occurred to me to do otherwise.

      I forgot this used to be the way. These days I think I’d be a little grossed out by the public headphones but I loved sitting in the store and skimming through albums before purchasing them.

    Or in my case you bought Toadies - Possum Kingdom and got pissed off that the entire album was only 37 minutes long and you payed $18 for it in the 90’s… Have not bought music sense. Viva la Streaming!
